Randy,

If you click on 'Home' you shall see "ROC Powder Mills Park: ROC Powder Mills Park: Red". It will allow you to enter splits and comments. I'll have my splits entered as soon as I will remember where I put my printout of the splits.

Thanks. I entered mine...not all that good compared to our friend, bishop! Are the distances listed as straight line for regular-o? Are they calculated manually from the map or is that something that OCAD does?

Yes, the distances are usually straight line. The exceptions are when there are uncrossable areas between controls (ponds, OB, uncrossable fences) - in which case the line on the map is supposed to bend around the area, and you would measure that.

I'm sure OCAD tells the length of each leg, but I don't have the course in OCAD, so I manually measured each leg.

After Gil enters his splits, we should have a more accurate picture of where we lost time (using the split analysis feature).
